## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** ## **From 1 April 2022 Period start date To 31 March 202 Period end date** **Charity name: King’s Lynn Film Festival** ## **Charity registration number: 1163058** ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|The Kings Lynn Film Festival objectives are
to:-
promote appreciation of, and education in,
the arts and crafts and their associated
technologies in relation to cinema and other
forms of moving images by staging an
annual film festival and educational events
and activities in association with this.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public

activities, projects or
services identified in the
accounts.|Para 1.17 and
1.19|King’s Lynn Film Festival
commenced its activities in 2015, with a
weekend festival of film screenings and
young person’s film-making workshops. A
decision was made at that stage to run the
Festival every 2 years, so the next edition
was in 2017, again featuring a programme
of film over a weekend, plus additional
activities including a young person’s
workshop. These served to meet the KLFF
objectives of promoting an appreciation of
film as an art form, and providing a specific
opportunity to engage with new audiences
such as young people.
The 2019 edition of the Festival was
postponed in order to review our offer and
give it wider appeal. However, our plans
for 2020 were disrupted by the covid
pandemic, and the Festival is now due to
return in late 2023. We have not
undertaken any specific activities, received
any income, or incurred any expenditure
within the year 2022-23 covered by this
report.
Generally, our activities have been
given a good profile locally through the
media and through our own
communications activities, helping to
establish the KLFF as part of the wider arts| |||and cultural offering in King’s Lynn and
West Norfolk.| |---|---|---| |Statement confirming
